One Voice, One Purpose

Welcome to our organization!

The Civil Society Organization Network for Western and Nyanza Province (CSO Network) has been operating as a Network of Civil Society Organization since 1999 with its offices in Kisumu. It covers both Western and Nyanza Province. The CSO Network has grown in stature and reputation, with a large participation from different development actors from the CBO, NGO and research institutions operating within the region.

We operate at two levels First, at membership level for networking, skill development and advocacy. Our second intervention is at community level for sensitization, mobilization and empowerment.

The CSO Network Bulk Portal

The Civil Society Organization Network in partnership with Nyanza Youth Coalition with support from the American People (USAID) have employed the latest trends in interactive mobile technology to set up a bulk portal with real-time SMS fora, opinion polls and chat rooms to engage the public in peaceful reform process. The CSO Network Bulk System is capable of undertaking quick surveys to determine public opinion on emerging issues. The Civil Society Organizations Network and Nyanza Youth Coalition has also geared this initiative to carry our civic education on policy developments, especially as the country goes through the reform process.
